On The Carl Sagan Portal you will find the following
"Mission Statement"

"Our mission is to awaken the broadest possible public
to the wonders of nature as revealed by science."

How simple and beautiful that little sentence is. How much
the world could gain by incorporating this loving and honest philosophy into
our view of life.

Carl was a brilliant physicist, who was able to teach in
lucid and entertaining ways that often left people learning far more than they
expected to learn when they began their journey with him. A delightful example
of this is the monumental series "Cosmos". If you ever have a chance
to read or watch anything that Carl has published, you will find his views,
unfettered by supernatural superstition, refreshing and revealing.
